God's Gracious Gift of Assurance David A Harrell

There is no greater source of joy in the life of Christians than knowing that we have been reconciled to God through faith in His Son, our Substitute and Surety, the Lord Jesus Christ. To know that our sins are forgiven and the merits of Jesus are now ours through imputation--solely as a gift of God's grace--produces such soul-satisfying kinship with our Creator that all fears of standing before His holy tribunal evaporate like a morning mist before the sun. Herein is the heart of the doctrine of justification--a doctrine that many believers only appreciate and enjoy superficially.
